Have you ever smelled a fragrance that makes you think of caramel in a dark, black way? Basically, that's what I'm looking for. Caramel pared with licorice, kind of smell.

Thanks in advance, happy new year! :)

That fragrance is spot on in the opening, but the incensey woody drydown totally ruined it for me. Such a shame :(

Not a lady here, but Eau Noire by Dior has this profile. Lavender-licorice anisic fresh note over dark immortelle.

This might not be as dark of a fragrance as you are looking for, but you might want to try Elixir de Merveilles by Hermes. When I tried it on my skin the caramel was not as pronounced, but I have read some reviews where people said it was quite prominent. It is more of a salty caramel. It is composed by Jean Claude Ellena, but I found it to be denser than some of his other fragrances that I have sampled. I also found it to be deeper than the original Eau de Merveilles.
